Well today marks 28 weeks...which means we are now in the 3rd trimester. WOW, I cant believe it! Seems like just yesterday I was only 12 weeks pregnant....now 28?!? This brings on a whole stir of emotions....I am getting excited of course, but a little scared and even sad at the same time. Obviously excitement to meet this little guy who we have been dreaming about since October. I am scared about labor, and about raising a child (especially about raising a child alone) which brings on my sadness...baby coming means James has to leave for Iraq. This baby is going to be such a great experience for us, but also a challenge. It will be a challenge for me, missing my soul mate, always worrying about him, and being a "single mom" to a newborn. It will be hard on James because he is going to leave either a pregnant wife, or hopefully a newborn, and come home to a one+ year old. And obviously he will be missing us and worrying about us too, but also worrying about the job at hand. We know that we will make it through, with a lot of help from God (please remember us in your prayers) but that doesnt mean that things will always be easy.
Anyhow, I go tomorrow to get some lab work done, and have to get the glucose test...boo!! Then on Tuesday I am going to the doctor for the 28 week appt...which means I have to get the rogam shot (since my blood type is O negative) .... even bigger boo!! haha this is not going to be the funnest appt I have been to!! But I am sure we will get good news about our little guy, we have so far. Which is all that matters, is that he is healthy, I will do whatever I have to do to keep him that way.
Thanks for the prayers everyone...we love you guys!
